Disabled Women of Color Caucus

Scheduling
Session Description: 

Presenters: Stacey Milbern and others

Last year, disabled women of color met at the AMC to envision a world where their individual and collective voices were heard. Since then these activists have met together via phone to discuss ways to work together. An online social group is in the works, as well as a zine or magazine. In this caucus we will build on what was done last year and move forward together in sisterhood. This space is open to all disabled people and allies but centers on the experiences of disabled women of color as our voices have been the ones dismissed most in other areas. From here we will organize and create some kind of future project or publication that explodes our experiences with the non-profit industrial complex, the colonization of our bodies, our histories, and other intricate facets of our lives onto paper.
